In the heart of Greektown..heavy smoke conditions...aerial pipes, tower ladders and snorkels working This was the 2nd of 2 major extra alarms the night of Jan 31-Feb 1 2010
@25mfd Still alarm is normally the first full alarm with 2 engines 2 trucks 1 Squad 1 battalion chief, Plus a command van and a RIT response of 1 truck 1 als ambo and 1 battalion chief. But some buildings that are connected to the 911 center (schools hospitals, theaters etc...) automatically get a box alarm of 4 Engines 2 Trucks and 1 Battalion chief. If there is a fire the alarm office will then you will get the full Still & Box response.
I believe I saw this one on Fox news I'm from the NW burbs.

@spoung45a So i'm assuming a box alarm is a FULL FIRST ALARM?????

@25mfd Technically it would be the 5th alarm. It goes Still, Still&Box, 2-11 etc...
